By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.

"60 Minutes" staffers past and present are outraged about Scott Pelley's firing.

NEW: Backstory on the drama at CBS News tonight...

Bari Weiss, Nick Bilton, Tom Cibrowski, and CBS HR invited Scott Pelley to a meeting at 5pm ET tonight to discuss a path forward after his vocal protest earlier this week in the 60 Minutes all-hands.

The two sides did not find common ground. Bari & Co. were left with sense that Scott was not open minded about reaching detente; meanwhile, Scott maintained strong frustrations with leadership.

Scott left meeting and was told they'd have an update on his employment in a matter of minutes... instead, Bari and her team deliberated for several hours.

At around 9:30 p.m., Nick Bilton, the new 60 Minutes E.P., sent this letter to Scott (see tweet below) in which he tells him he has been terminated "for cause." He also sent a memo to staff (see tweet below that).

The language in Nick's memo suggests a legal fight coming. No response yet from Pelley.

History will be very kind to Pelley. Not so much to CBS News.

The People’s House has stood for 226 years. America hits its 250th birthday next month. Instead of dignity or reflection, we get this sad, trashed-out mess right on the lawn.

The Bears were hoping this property where Our Lady of the Blessed Shroud stands would be demolished so they could build their new stadium. However, at the last minute, someone came up with the $5,000 over due tax payment.

If you do not understand by now that this vile edifice has nothing to do with dancing and everything to do with the imposition of martial law in Washington, I don't know what to tell you except that it's time to put the Berenstain Bears books aside and start reading history books

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

BASH: On the reflecting pool, the Times reports you awarded two multimillion no bid contracts. Is that true?

BURGUM: Well, this is expedited contracting to get these projects done

BASH: Does that mean 'no bid'?

BURGUM: You're implying something untoward is going on

BASH: The company doing the reflecting pool has a 20% project margin. Standard is 6-12%.
